What can you do, make the guy care? Make him volunteer at a shelter? At the very least, let him put his money where his mouth is. Whether he's a poseur or not on the humanitarian front, at least the end result is a net positive.
Sorry if I'm a bit defensive at this point, it's just frustrating to me that an ad so OBVIOUSLY tasteless is garnering so many callous apologists with thoughtless excuses. I don't get it. It's amazing to me that some of us can call a tasteless ad what it is, and yet WE are the ones attracting much of the "hate" in this particular thread.
